Not that I have to have those planes... I love flying 30+ eny planes as well as cannon monsters....

Some of the best fun I've had was landing 4 kills in an I16 in base defense against a bish horde, I don't think I got higher than 1.5K the entire fight, all on the deck. Same thing happened in base defense with a Hurri I, all on the deck TnB'in, ended up with 3 kills 500 holes in my bird, landed and had to go get a drink and lie down til I quit shaking!

Recently I have been flying the 109G6...got 7 kills in it one sortie about a month ago, no rearms......... but I must admit I have a hard time leaving the hanger without the gondolas.  :D

Yes it does.  Nothing substantiates your claims of dogfighting prowess.  If you don't want to furball and mix it up, that's perfectly alright, but please spare us statements like the one you just made.  It's simply not true, and you're only kidding yourself if you think otherwise.

I'm not accusing you of flying easy planes, and I never said that they are easy. I can't fly a single plane well that's on that list. I just found it funny how you described your love for Hispanos, and zeros.  :)

Oh no, I didn't think you were calling me "easy mode" although that's what you hear 99% of the time if you mention Hurri IIc, Temp, or LA7..... but they all have their vulnerabilities, espcially when they let me fly them!

And yes, I do thank Mr. Hispano over country channel plenty of times after I land my scalps!

Tell me which of the rounds below you'd rather be sending out a wall of....

Probably the lower one as hispano was notorious for jamming under high g conditions. One hard turn, shoot and you're without guns  :aok

I think saying that I do really well in anything is quite an exaggeration. :D

it depends on what you mean by "do well" 

get lots of killz?

win the war?

personally I have found that I have the best time in a KI-84/109k4, by that I mean I can go out and attack the hourde and get some kills and even occasionally make it back home.

with out having to resort to flying the noob planes.  16... LA7...N1K...

I used to fly the hurri religiously, at ALT that plane is deadly but so very easy to beat, I love all the prop planes the P40 is my favorite but isn't competitive in MA's.
